BSP Masterclass - Aesthetic Crown Lengthening
**SOLD OUT**
19.05.2023
The Aesthetic Crown Lengthening Masterclass will be divided into two parts.
During the first part, delegates will participate in lectures and case-based discussions where they will learn the fundamentals of a facially driven aesthetic assessment and treatment planning of complex cases. Participants will actively plan surgery for a real-life case using PowerPoint/Keynote, Photoshop and Digital Smile Design software. We will then assess the rationale behind different surgical techniques and key surgical decision making.
The second part will be a hands-on workshop on pig’s jaws where participants will be able to practise:
- Carrying out a gingivectomy with blades/ electrosurgery units
- Raising a minimally invasive flap
- Osteoplasty using rotary and piezoelectric instrumentation
- Preparation of the root surface
- Suturing techniques
We will close the day with a Q&A session. Following the course, Delegates will be invited to attend an informal day at Dr Shah’s practice where they can view a live surgery via video link or on-demand.
